   Scroll down to the bottom, the final option, "Storage settings" in the "OTHER" section

   .

   We want to demonstrate how to customize the storage settings. The reason we would want to do this is because it allows us to choose where we store the particular options.

   We can see the options are "Voice Recorder", "Messages", "Bluetooth", "Internet" and "Camera"

   .

   What this section allows us to do is to choose where we store the data for these applications. It allows us to edit the choices and choose exactly where to store it. If we have too much information on the SD card or not enough memory on the phone memory, we can choose where to send the data to manage the space better.

    If we want to change them individually, we can tap on one

    .

    For example, we can see "Messages" and underneath of it, it says "Phone storage". If we press down on messages we will see a green circle next to "Phone storage". It is the current choice. Tap on "SD card storage" to change it.
